About
Also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, Biotin is a type of B vitamin that plays a significant role in the health of our skin, hair and nails.
While rare, deficiencies in biotin can result in hair thinning and have been linked to weak and brittle nails. Other symptoms such as a red and scaly rash, particularly around the eyes, nose and mouth area, can also be related to low biotin levels in the body.
As well as working to support our mucous membranes for healthy-looking skin, studies show that supplementation of biotin may help improve nail thickness and hardness, making it an ideal ingredient for those looking for an inner beauty boost.
